Ambulance
repairs slow
aid for girl
By DON HULL
An ill co-ed waited for an ambulance for nearly an hour
Monday while the university emergency vehicle was being
repaired.
Trudy Monk, P.E. I, lay in
Dean of Inter-Faculty Affairs
Walter Gage's office from 1:10
p.m. to 2:05 p.m. while the
traffic office obtained a downtown ambulance to take her
to Wesbrook Hospital.
Miss Monk fell on the stairs
in the cafeteria at noon and
struck her head on a banister.
A companion, Lyn Mackenzie, Arts IV, said Miss Monk
didn't seem to be injured.
However about 1 p.m. Miss
Monk began to feel ill, her
friend said.
She was taken to Dean
Walter Gage's office nearby in
the Buchanan building.
(More mix-ups Page 3)
At 1:10 p.m. Doug Plum-
steel, Arts I said he phoned
the health service from Dean
Gage's office.
A doctor from Wesbrook
Hospital arrived fifteen minutes later with a nurse.
When no ambulance had arrived by 1:45 p.m., Buchanan
janitor Paul Gowerluk said
he phoned the traffic office
to enquire about the campus
ambulance and was told it was
downtown for repair.
A downtown ambulance arrived at the Buchanan building at 2:05 p.m.
A health services spokesman said the ambulance had
been called by the traffic office after health services had
called them.
Miss Monk was taken to
Wesbrook Hospital where she
is under observation.
Traffic director Sir Ouvry
Roberts said the shambulance
left the campus for battery repairs at 11:30 a.m.

West kept out
by Wall-Zuken
The Berlin Wall was built
to keep West Germans out, not
to keep East Germans in, a
Communist alderman from
Winnipeg said Friday.
Joseph Zuken, an elected
municipal official in his eighth
term, spoke on Democracy and
Communism in Canada.
"Nazis, and pro-Nazi thinkers are still firmly entrenched
in the government of West
Germany," said Zuken.
"They must be kept from
undermining the socialist
People's Republic of Germany.
The Wall is a symbol of this
battle."
Zuken said the Communist
party of Canada had a long
record of fighting for democratic freedoms.
"Democracy is the vehicle
by which complete socialism
will come to Canadian life,"
he added.

Girls not
always
right
By JOAN GODSELL
Ubyssey Women's Angle
Left-handedness has got to
go-
Why? It's causing havoc,
that's why.
Example—The other day I
was sitting at a table corner
in the library, minding my
own business.
The next thing I know,
someone with an over-active
right arm is sitting beside me,
pumping his elbow like it was
going out of style.
Amazing!
Amazing — because I was
doing the same thing.
But I'm left-handed. Inevitably we bumped elbows.
I flashed him a toothy grin,
turned crimson and moved my
chair over.
Again we bumped elbows.
(He had a big elbow.)
Again I moved over. Again,
again I moved over. We were
still bumping elbows.
Of course, I eventually came
to the end of the table and
spilled my books all over the
place. Of course everybody
glared at me.
I felt awful.
If someone would invent a
left-handed desk, I'd beat a
pathway to his door.
On the other hand, I'd give
my left arm to be right-
handed.

band members are university

The five member CFUN
Classics band was signed to
play for $150, the same price
the Playboys charged.
AMS treasurer Kyle Mitchell said: "We've asked the
Playboys to submit their costs,
but we'll argue about paying
the full price of $150."
Under the contract the AMS
is obligated to pay the Playboys $75 if the AMS cancels
their performance within a
week of the dance.
Frosh president Kim Campbell described the dance as a
tremendous success, with 250
couples attending.
She said expenses totalled
about $265 and receipts $375
making a net profit of about
$100.
This is the first frosh dance
in many years which has made
money or broken even.

LIBRARY RUSH is on. Exams start Dec. 8, and many
students are rediscovering the Library. Some nap. Some
talk. Some even study.
Even Negroes' in
UBC fraternities
Inter-Fraternity Council president Dean Paravantes said
Monday he doesn't worry about discrimination in UBC
fraternities.
The Brock proctor on
John Wilson, didn't know how
to call the UBC patrol wagon-
ambulance after hours if there
is no one in the patrol office.
So he called the hospital in
the Wesbrook building, got a
nurse, then a doctor, who told
him to get some one to bring
the girl—Jill McBride, Arts I
—to the hospital in a private
car.
But the student who volunteered his car had trouble
getting it going, so the girl
had to wait a little longer,
bleeding badly from the
mouth.
But when the car arrived
at the hospital, they found
there was no equipment to
carry the girl up to the emergency centre.
Finally a wheelchair on the
third floor of the hospital was
brought down, and the girl
was taken up.
She was treated and released.
The proctor said Monday he
has since learned the shambulance is equipped with a radio telephone, and can be contacted at any time through the
B.C. Telephone Radio Operator.
The toga probably isn't the
coming campus fashion, Bill
Bier, Arts IV decided Monday.
"It's very comfortable but it
has a tendency to trip you
walking up stairs," he said.
Monday was Toga Day at
UBC, and Bier and seven
other members of the Arts
Council and the Academic
Activities Committee wore togas to draw attention to academic activities on campus.
'I think I've caught a cold,"
Bier sniffed, as he stood in the
rain.
"Reactions to the hardy Toga-
clad ranged from dumbfounded stares to appreciative
whistles," Bier said.
"One bearded passerby commented: "It's very you!"
Bier said he didn't think it
could have rained very much
in ancient Greece.

He said he has yet to meet
anyone who complained about
being kept out of a fraternity
because of discrimination.
"I haven't given fraternity
discrimination at UBC any
thought," Paravantes said
Monday.
"There are Chinese, Japanese, and even Negroes in fraternities," he said.
A Board of Governors regulation at UBC prohibits any
form of discrimination in
fraternities at UBC.

What do you want in a
company after graduation?
Graduates who've been out a few years say the important things
to look for in choosing a job are good training, an unrestricted
chance to grow in a solid, recognized company, income, early
responsibility and a stimulating environment where intelligence
and enthusiasm are recognized. The points are not always in that
order, but these are the main ones. What, then, can Procter &
Gamble offer you?
1# An outstanding record of individualized,
on-the-job training.
2« Responsibilities and promotion based on
a man's ability — not seniority.

Two worlds
, The following is exerpled from the McGill Daily. Three
French Canadian universities pulled out of the Canadian
Union of Students in September and formed the core of
the Union Generale des Etudiante du Quebec. (UGEQ).
The founding convention of the Union Generale des
Etudiants du Quebec raised questions whose importance
transcends the limited field of specifically student
interests.
It clearly revealed that the student elites of English
and French Canada are now living in almost totally
distinct reality-worlds, marked by a nearly complete
absence of valuable communication.
This fact is unlikely to yield to simple or dramatic
solutions, and it is not our intention to propose any. But
the fact itself must be taken into consideration by all of
us who are concerned with the future of the Canadian
experiment.
We tend to assume that all French Canadians, for
better or for worse, spend much of their time thinking
about the English speaking half of the country. Even
separatism presumably demands an awareness of Anglo-
Canada, if only for the purpose of rejecting it.
The impression received from the recent convention,
however, was that most of the participants tended to
define their goals entirely without reference to English-
speaking elements.
No one said, like Claude Ryan, that Quebec's interests
were best served by accepting a Canadian solution.
No one said, like Maurice Sauve, that he wanted to feel
at home in the other nine provinces.
Only one of ten candidates for executive positions
mentioned Canada at all, and one mote advised the
English-speaking people of Quebec to co-operate with the
majority. It seemed as if psychological separation had
already taken place.
Also noticeable at the convention was the extent of
identification with the recently independent states of
Asia and Africa.
This was shown not only in the reference to "the
abolition of all forms of colonialism, imperialism an'd
discrimination" in the UGEQ charter, but by the suggestion that UGEQ will attempt to organize the student
groups of the "uncommitted" world as a third force
analogous to the existing communist and western
federations.
This general acceptance of quasi-revolutionary rhetoric probably conceals differences of opinion on specific
issues which will only become obvious as the organization begins to function.
It symbolizes, however, a situation which is real
enough. The disaffection of most Quebec intellectuals
with the internal status quo creates an awareness of
problems which, by their very nature, cannoifbe shared
with, or fully understood by, English-speaking Canada.
In these circumstances a transitional period of psychological withdrawal becomes inevitable as Quebec concentrates on solving its own problems.
Hopefully, when these are solved, a more self-
assured French Canada, and a more understanding
English Canada, can establish a relationship of genuine
equality.

We're irresponsible
Editor, The Ubyssey:
I cannot protest strongly
enough against the thoughtless and irresponsible methods used in reporting the case
involving the "UBC Coed" of
Friday's Ubyssey.
It seems to me that the reporter's function is not only
to report the facts of a particular case but also to use
discrimination in his selection and presentation of them.
This involves simply a rational judgment as to what is
relevant, a judgment sorely
lacking in the article referred
to. When given alone, any set
of particulars can be made to
distort the picture of the
whole; the dragging in of descriptions involved an implicit
condemnation, and connotations which have no place in
anything but tabloid journalism of the lowest order.

And tactless
Editor, The Ubyssey:
I wish to object to the tactlessness and the cruelty of
the front page story in last
Friday's Ubyssey.
I am objecting to the slanted, sensation-seeking and unnecessary exposure of a girl's
difficulty.
I do not know the young
lady but surely anyone can
understand some of the anguish she may be going
through. Would not kindness
have been more appropriate?
Drugs on campus is a good
issue, a significant issue. Significant enough to provide
material for a series of articles. And in a university
newspaper there would be a
chance for solid analysis,
even meaningful exposure.
But on Friday The Ubyssey
chose the cheap way, chose to
be sensationally cruel, chose
a shoddy black headline regardless of who was hurt.
The story was essentially
empty.
It raised no issues, analysed
no problems, provided no significant information.
Technically, Mr. Blair, you
are a good reporter.
But, please, Mr. Blair,
please, start to learn that
journalism is much more
than mere technical expertise.
Start to learn some of the
things that tried newspapermen respect—a compassionate understanding of people,
a knowledge of what hurt
means, a grasp of relevancy
and a -sure instinct of when
to kill a story.
Please Mr. Blair, start now
for you have much to learn.

And gobblers
Editor, The Ubyssey:
Is this a newspaper or just
another "Garbage-Gobbler"?
I am referring to the reporting of the drug raid, Friday,
Nov. 20. Was it necessary to
go into the personal details
of the girl's apartment? It's
apparent that your reporter,
for obvious reasons, is a frustrated author and will snatch
at any opportunity to display
his limited literary abilities.
Or is it the policy of this
paper to grind its hobnail
boots into the backs of unfortunates? Surely going into
these unhappy details has not
furthered the spreading of
news, just the "mongering"
of malicious gossip—a sad effort for the voice of this seat
of enlightenment and, I believe, of tolerance.

Too much Bains
Editor, The Ubyssey:
Recently a great deal of
coverage in the Ubyssey has
.been made in connection
with Mr. Hardial Bains. I
wonder if Mr. Bains and his
statements are so significant
as to receive such a coverage.
Mr. Bains has been quoted
as stating (Ubyssey, Nov. 20,
etc.) that he is anti-bureaucratic and is not interested in
elected positions. However, he
has run and been defeated for
at least the following campus offices: presidencies of
the GSA, Indian Students Association and the former IH
Club, and the directorship of"
the Board of International
House.
He has organized the Internationalists and the BCSF,
both of which do not hold elections but Mr. Bains has become the president of the latter.
Mr. Bains is generally credited with initiating the Academic Activities Committee
under the AMS bureaucracy.
The Ubyssey reserves the
right to edit letters for brevity, relevance and taste. Letters to the editor can be left
in a box at ihe front of the
Ubyssey office in the basement of North Brock.
Yet he is anti-bureaucratic.
He is anti-clique but there is
a "nucleus" in the BCSF.
There is a "secretariat" but
no bureaucracy.
From what it has done and
from the leaflet it has distributed, the BCSF under the
leadership of Mr. Bains seems
to intend to raise a hell but
to do nothing constructive.
The Ubyssey has done enough to publicize Mr. Bains
and the BCSF and perhaps
should devote its coverage to
more worthwhile endeavours.

VOC members find Xmas
ski trips can be cheap
The Varsity Outdoors Club
Christmas trip program offer
skiing from yo-yo to touring,
for the novice or the expert.
This year ten trips to resort
or yo-yo areas have been organized and over 100 people
will set off to the cabin on
Mt. Seymour or as far away
as Schweitzer basin in Idaho.
The biggest group is making
their base camp in Kelowna
near Big White Mt. and from
there they will tour the Okanagan.
The club has the use of a
large building that will house
over 30 people.
With this sort of arrangement the club has the real idea.
The girls do the cooking, wish
washing and cabin cleaning,
while the stronger sex handle
the firewood, water carrying,
etc.
• • •
The group trips cut the cost
down by one-third, as most of
the grub is robbed from
mother's kitchen shelves.
Another large group will
make headquarters in Banff
and from there they will ski
Norquay, Sunshine, Temple
and Whitehorn.
Up to this year the most
popular trip was to the Kim-
berly-Rossland area, but this
is dropping off in favour of the
Okanagan areas.
A splinter group of the club
is anti yo-yo and usually uses
their Christmas holidays for a
ski touring trip.
Garibaldi's Black Tusk
meadows has provided the
closest touring for VOC members. The club has used the
cabin at Garibaldi Lake and
from there they have climbed
and skiied Price, Panorama,
Sphinx Glacier and the Tusk
itself.
The club has run three very
successful tours into the Yo-
Ho Valley. Here a cabin
owned by the federal parks is
used.
Last winter the club ventured into the Bralorne area
for a combination of rope tow
and touring skiing.
This year the trips on the
program are to Forbidden Plateau, back of Courtenay on
Vancouver Island, and into
the Jasper Park area.
The ski-tourer is special
breed, he seems to find fun in
packing a 40-pound pack for
twenty miles into some remote
spot, camp in a cold tent on
a glacier, and a few days work
his way out to civilization.

A cabin skier says:
This is the true sport
Everyone says that you have
to be brave to be a good skier.
It takes a lot more guts not to
be a good skier.
Any idiot with the meat in
his coconut loose can wedlen,
mombo, or schuus, but it takes
a man with real guts to meet
some wench on a mountain
peak and talk her into going
back to your cabin to cook
your dinner.
A skier can be sloppy in his
technique and get away with
it, but a shier must be faultless in form if he is to get
over all the jumps and through
all the gates that stand between him and his objective.
A cabin skier must have
extraordinary reflexes in order to get to the side of a
snow bunny in trouble before
those godamm ski patrolers
get over and do their good
deed for the day.
A cabin skier must have
fantastic physical stamina if
he's to last through a night of
twisting, cabin hopping, poker
playing, bunny trapping and
all its associated pleasures, and
still make the supreme effort
and get to the slopes before
the sun goes down the next
day.
You'll note that I said get
"to the slopes" and not "up
the slopes" as the latter is
strictly vorboten to the cabin
skier. There's no use in ruining a carefully built-up reputation.
Last, but by no means
least, a cabin skier must have
vast financial resources if
he's to be really successful.
An accomplished cabin skier
must of course have a cabin
of his own (it is permissible
to share it with a couple of
buddies, provided they don't
ski) and this is the largest initial outlay and also requires
periodical outlays for such
items as gas for the power
plant (an essential for comfort
and efficiency) repairs, paint
(a bright little used color to
get attention is preferable).
Another necessity that requires a fair sized outlay is
clothes. A wardrobe of the
latest ski fashions is a must
in order to create the impression that you're a skier without having to hit the slopes.
Sweaters should be patterned
with bright colors predominate. Pants must be of stretch
nylon in order not to impede
your twisting and chasing.
A car is another must, but
this does not have to be fancy
as you want to create the impression that you spend all
your money on skiing and be-

sides an old car (1940 or earlier) gets a lot of attention from
the younger set, many of
whom have older sisters. The
car should be small (two
seats) so that you can only give
a ride to one person at a time;
obvious advantage.
Finally a successful shier
must pay for such things as
:hairlifts (it's not proper to
hike), badges for his jacket
showing the places he's (if
you'll excuse the expression)
skiied at, sun tan lotion, food
(at least until you meet enough
bunnies who can supply the
food as well as cook it), and
the requirement of all requirements -BOOZE.

Take A Trip and Save
Is there something inspiring about running for three or four miles at night in 32
degree weather with car headlights glaring
at you?
Or perhaps "running in the rain" with sodden sweat pants, or along the beach on rocks,
pebbles, logs and sand which undermines
your steps and fills your shoes?
The inspiring element is supposed to be
that vision of grandeur as you win first prize
in the combined Alpine events in every intercollegiate ski meet.
When training it seems rather like the carrot on the stick before the panting ass, and
they say fools can't make choices.
So you don't; every Tuesday and Thursday
from 6:30 - 8:00 p.m. and on Saturdays from
1:30 - 3:00 p.m. you run, run and run and
then return to the equipment room in War
Memorial Gym to do interminable conditioning exercises.
But after each session your outlook brightens a measure.
You feel a damn sight better after a good
workout; the sore "muscles and blood and
skin and bone" gradually "tone up" and running doesn't seem quite the chore it did initially.
Besides, it is inspiring to exercise with the
girls' ski team after those runs on Tuesday
and Thursday nights—somehow you're not
quite as exhausted as you thought you were.
The simple fact is, it's a good program from
which both the team and the individual benefit.
Under the excellent and rigorous coaching
of Allan Fisher, an engineer formerly from
U. of Washington, now in the pulp mill division of a local engineering firm, the team
has been training since the opening week of
the term.
Fisher has stressed long distance running
up to six miles for stamina, including running
along the beach below the campus on Saturdays to build up leg muscles.
The usual course on Tuesdays and Thursdays leads from the gym, down Wesbrook to
Chancellor, out Chancellor to Acadia, up
Acadia to University boulevard, out the
boulevard to the gates and back to the gym.
Upon returning to the gym the group
works through a number of exercises, primarily with an eye for skiing techniques.
One of the routines involves jumping from
side to side over a row of benches, simulating a slalom course.
At mid-November the prospective ski team
separated from the general skiing conditioning program and concentrated more on developing reaction, coordination and balance
through exercises, working on the trampoline
and gymnastics.
Soccer will be added to the Saturday workouts for coordination.
Heading the alpine team in its special
training is Don Bruneski, former Olympic
competitor, and Joe Czismazia, who has had
considerable gymnastic and ski racing experience.
Among those seriously competing to make
the four man alpine team are Leigh Brousson,
Tom Jenkin, Martin Kaffka, Tim Roberts,
Eugene Ruelle, Bill Shaak, Gary Taylor and
Dave Turner.
The prospective team will train in Rossland from Dec. 20th until the New Year, when
the final team will be chosen.
And that brings us back to our inspiration
—-the meets themselves.
UBC plays host to the other colleges (primarily northwest American teams) Jan. 1st -
3rd in Rossland.
U. of Alberta takes over from Jan. 29-31
in Banff, and on Feb. 12 -14 the University
of Idaho will host a meet in McCall, Idaho.
Probably the last meet of the year will be
Feb. 20-21 in Bend, Oregon, although two
other meets in Montana and Washington are
held perilously close to exams.
So all that running, although depressing
beyond expression at times, provides an indescribably rewarding thrill during the meets
—that of competition, emotion, acquaintances
and of skiing with quick, mechanical reactions—and besides, like Guinness—it's good
for you!

Remember that airline stewardess that
walked out on the hill in her nylons and ski
boots, dragging her skis behind her?
She was one of the many who've gone on
the Rossland Ski Week in the past nine years.
I have been in the lodge as a high school
student, when the UBC group was having one
of its annual Christmas weeks, and I soon
found out that my approach to life was somewhat philistine. There is such a variety of
people that go for the week (Dec. 20 - Jan. 1),
both from UBC and downtown that it's bound
to be an experience for anybody.
You don't have to be able to ski; the ski
team gives daily lessons, and if you're as
hopeless as the airline stewardess, as we hope
you are, we'll give you private lessons all
week.
And of course if you're expert we'll still
teach you, but the whole of Red Mountain is
yours if you wish—all 1600 vertical feet of it.
The chair-lift, poma lift and rope tow cater
to any skill or lack of same, and the snow
promises to be good.
It's only $74 for the bus trip, tows, breakfast, supper, lessons, party and accommodation.
The accommodation is in town now—that's
where everybody used to end up at night
anyway—and the bus will take you to the
hill each morning and back each evening.
Meals are just half a block away. There'll
be a New Year's bash in the Red Mountain
Lodge as in past years.
Any more information is available on the
numerous posters around campus, but the
deadline is Dec. 4th.
It's fun; it's organized.
Ask anybody from last year who went up,
or better still go yourself on the best Christmas trip on campus.

'65 ski fashions are color, color, color
By CAROLE MUNROE
From Todd to Timberline,
Seymour to Sun Valley, the
accent of ski fashions in 1965
is on color, color, color.
And it is color in an unbroken line from head to foot.
That could mean a soft gold
V-neck sweater over tight
stretch pants of the same color,
V ;•'
... '.,jA5f
topped with a perky knitted
hat in matching gold tones. Or
it could be explosive red pants
paired with en equally bright
red parka, perhaps streaked
with a stripe across the chest.
Or the effect could be in
blue: aquamarine stretch pants
and matching top completed
by a knitted jersey.
jtS*****^
AU these outfits are locked
in color continuity. This is
the axis; your imagination and
sense of color can revolve
around it endlessly.
Brighten a black sweater
and slacks set with a daring
parka of pink-flowered design.
Add a matching pink headband and the vivid picture is
complete. Play matching
emerald green parka and pants
against a bright navy sweater;
or foil wine sweater and pants
with a stark white parka.
Once established this one-
color look can lead to a limitless variety of go-fast looks.
Parallel sets are another
new look in '64 ski fashions.
Men and women's outfits mate,
but only closely enough to be
smart, not identical. Fresh
fashion parallels begin as look
alikes, then proceed to distinguish between builds and figures, guys and girls.
He can wear a black stretch
suit with traditional ribbons
of sky blue across the shoulders and down the pant legs.
Her outfit combines the blue
stripes on a white background.
Both wear matching knit hats
topped by a bouncing pompom.
Or they can both wear sleekly tapered knickers which fit
precisely and blouse briefly
just at the knee, his camel-
colored and hers a royal blue,
both with matching socks and
sweater.
"Western stretch suit parallels are also destined to hit the
slopes. For her it's a true
khaki with pants white-stitched up the sides and into a low
dipped V-yoke across the hips.
The matching jacket covers a
white turtleneck. His navy
suit is outlined in white and
stitched into a broad yoke that
curves across the shoulders.
So here they are: lively
sweaters that coordinate or
contrast with the tautest ski
pants and smartest parkas,
worn with peppy hats or
matching headbands.
This is ski fashion 1964 . . .
ready to spring into action
with the first fresh powder.

An early fall of snow last week found students like the one above skipping classes
and heading off to Mt. Seymour. The picture is taken in the meadows looking towards
Goldie Rope tow.
In Garibaldi Park
The best in spring skiing
For a post exam bash most
UBCers head toward the Arms
but members of the Varsity
Outdoors Club release their
tensions by heading into Garibaldi Park.
For several weeks in May
the club rents the Airways
cabin on Garibaldi Lake and
this is used as the base camp
for the 100 odd spring skiers of
the club.
From the cabin, six miles inland from Garibaldi Station on
the PGE, ski parties head off
to Sphinx glacier, Panorama
ridge, Price Mt., the Black
Tusk meadows and Sentinal
glaciers.
The cabin is built to accommodate ten people (not too
comfortably) but usually over
30 are crowded into it at one
time.
Others are sleeping in tents
near the cabin or out on trips
up the various mountains.
Preparations begin early in
March when the cabin is booked and group train rates are
arranged. Club girls go on a
giant shopping trip to buy enough food to feed a logging
camp. An airplane is hired
to drop the food and tents on

the frozen lake near the cabin.
At the cabin and in the
camps the girls do most of the
kitchen chores, while the boys
handle the firewood, water,
etc.
Two routes are used to get
into the lake area. Skiers
climb into Diamond Head,
cross Garibaldi Mountain, then
over Spinx glacier down to the
lake.
The other and most popular
route is from the PGE dropoff
point at Garibaldi Station.
From here skiers can choose
two routes, one up and over
the Barrier, a fantastic rock
wall or up a switch back trail.
This hike, using skins on
the bottom of the skis most of
the way, takes around six
hours although it has been
done in much less. Some have
taken over two days.
Snow conditions are not always the best as the hot spring
sun turns the surface of the
lake and mountains into a
sopping mess.
Most skiing is done in the
earlier part of the day when
the snow is firm. Last year
the heavy snow fall and cooler
weather kept powder snow on
the upper slopes until the end
of May.
To participate in this bash
most skiers need special equipment. Ski bindings that will
allow the heel to lift are essential. Seal skins are used to
prevent the skier from sliding
back when climbing up hill.

BACKGROUND
Rock bit like Britain
By AL DONALD
GIBRALTAR—The Ameri-
can woman in the Gibraltar
post office leaned over the
counter.
"Does anyone here speak
English?" she asked.
"Yes, Madam," replied the
clerk.
"Oh, good. Can you tell
me what a dollar is worth in
your money?"
"Seven shillings."
"How much is a shilling?"
"Twelve pennies in one
shilling; twenty shillings in a
pound, madam."
"Oh, you're English, then!"
exclaimed the woman.
The statement was more or
less true.
Gibraltar is a copy of a
small English town, from its
inhabitants to its physical
features.
The narrow, crooked main
street that winds through the
town is bordered by news
stands, pubs and English style
groceries.
An English "bobby" directs
traffic at a crossroads, and the
Union Jack flies over the
Governor's residence outside
of which a Royal Marine
stands guard.
Ubyssey staffer Al Donald
is touring Europe. Here is
another of his reports.
Most of the people are
British, although the merchants and shopkeepers are
Spanish, and the common
language is English with clipped, nasal accent.
There is the occasional
Irishman, and kilts are a common sight on the streets.
But despite the British flavor there is an air of the cosmopolitan. American and
Spanish sailors mix with the
British and Gibraltar's second
language is Spanish.
The restaurants sell Spanish food, hamburgers and
milkshakes as well as fish
and chips, and very English-
looking uniformed school
AL DONALD
. . . roving reporter
boys speak to each other in
Spanish.
Because of Spanish influence, it is surprising that
Gibraltar has remained British so long.
Since 1703, the large two-
peaked rock jutting out into
the Mediterranean has been
under the Union Jack. And
the Spanish Government,
since that time, has tried
many times to put it under
the Spanish flag.
The most recent attempt at
a partial blockade of Gibraltar began on Nov. 6 this year
when the Spanish customs at
La Lineu, the town just behind the border, put an embargo on many products coming out of the peninsula.
The blockade continues and
many cars are being held up
for more than three hours at
the border.
When you stand on top of
the Rock, the strategic importance of the position is
obvious.
To the east and west the
Spanish coastline stretches
away; to the north are the
mountains of southern Spain
and across a few miles of
Mediterranean are the mountains of Morocco.

Every ship which passes
through the straits of Gibraltar can be seen from the Rock.
Roads to the summit are
patrolled by police and army
vehicles.
From the side of the Rock
you can see modern gun emplacements pointing west and
south. Part of the east side is
tiled and used as a water
catchment area.
The slogan painted in red
on the side of a building facing travellers coming from
La Linea says: "Gibraltar—
260 years British and still going strong."
Whether Gibraltar has the
same strategic value it had
100 years ago is open to question, but from the attitude of
the present British government it seems likely that it
will stay in the hands of the
British for a long time yet.

Ex-editors
start own
paper
LONDON (CUP) — Seven
students who last month resigned from the Gazette, student newspaper of the University of Western Ontario, have
started their own paper.
The seven students, three
editors and four writers, left
the Gazette Oct. 21 after a
policy dispute with editor-in-
chief Rob Johnson.
Johnson had refused to run
a satire on a fraternity during
Silence Week, a period when
fraternities are forbidden to
rush future members.
First edition of the mimeographed paper appeared under
the name Veritas and was distributed to about 1,800 students.
Shortly after, Western's student council issued a statement supporting Johnson in
his right to exercise control
over the content in the Gazette.

BANNO'5
EYE VIEW
OF BIRDS
By ROBERT BANNO
The problem of the apathetic UBC sports fan opens,
once again, the matter of
athletic scholarships.
We must be realistic and
face the fact that no amount
of juvenile, rah-rah school
spirit garbage will revive fan
support (if it even existed) at
UBC. What is needed is clear:
• A vastly improved calibre of play, with schools like
Washington, Oregon, UCLA
and Southern California.
• A complete overhaul of
our present system, making
university athletics a community, not just a university institution.
• An adequate stadium,
seating at least 20,000 fans,
an enlarged gymnasium and
hockey arena.
To accomplish this, a system of vigorous recruiting
and athletic scholarships
must be instituted.
The prospect appears
bright.
In a Ubyssey article last
•March 26th, UBC athletic director Bus Phillips stated
that "the Men's Athletic Committee has had the question
of Athletic scholarships under consideration for some
time." Phillips went on to
say, "We are pleased that Dr.
Gordon Shrum plans to implement our ideas into Simon Frase'r's athletic program."
The encouraging article
also stated that several MAC
members favored scholarships, including Alumni representative Dr. Gerry Nest-
man who said, "there need be
no conflict between Academic and Athletic scholarships."
• • •
Let us hope that " ideas"
will be also implemented by
UBC within a few years.
For our present program
is not only half baked and
hypocritical, but is an outright failure which does not
achieve its objectives.
It fails to attract student
interest and it fails financially.
We should eliminate our
present hypocritical system
and embark on one of two
directives: the one suggested
in this article and supported
by Phillips, Nestman and
most people connected with
university; or the complete
elimination of inter-collegiate
competition.
UBC third
in track meet
UBC placed third in the
senior Varsity team event of
the Pacific Northwest cross
country tournament held at
UBC last weekend.
Washington State won the
senior event with 12 points,
followed by Van. Olympic
club with 42 and UBC with
61 points.
Individually the first place
finishers were Chris West-
man and John Valiant, both
of Washington State, who
tied for first place.
UBC's HOCKEY BIRDS showed Olympic class against
Rossland Warriors. Saturday night in their first game of
the season they tied 4-4 with the Warriors. Sunday they
downed Rossland by a 4-0 score. UBC defenceman Al
In Hockey
Happy debut
for UBC crew
It was a happy debut for UBC's Thunderbird hockey
team as they tied and defeated the Rossland Warriors in
two games over the weekend.
SPORTS
Saturday in their first game
of the season the .Birds took
two periods to get their timing, then exploded for three
goals in the final period to
come from behind and tie 4-4
with the Warriors.
Sunday the Birds showed
their Olympic class as they
shut out and outscored the
Warriors in a 4 - 0 victory. The
Birds were never in trouble,
punching out a two-zip first
period lead and adding single
tallies in each of the final two
periods.
MARTIN GREAT
In both games Rossland's
outstanding goalkeeper and
playing coach Seth Martin
made like a magician as he
mystified the Bird's would-be-
scorers by coming up with
some unbelievable saves.
Saturday, with seconds left
in the game, Martin deftly
plucked the puck from Gary
Dineen's stick as Dineen tried
to drive home a quick rebound
from a low, hard, point shot by
UBC defenceman Ab Merlo.
But the Birds' goaltender
Ken Broderick also came
through with fine performances, especially Sunday when
he blanked the Warriors, turning aside thirty shots.
Top point collector for the
Birds was centre Dineen with
six assists in the two games.
Sunday he assisted on each of
UBC's goals.
Birds' scorers Saturday were
Bob Forhan, Bill Bowles, Al
McLean and Les Johannensen.
Sunday Forhan added his second and third goals of the
weekend and Bowles and McLean each scored their second.

UBC's Thunderbird soccer
team fell nine points off the
pace losing 3-1 to league-leading Columbus in PCSL action
Sunday.
Once again the UBC club
was unable to locate the enemy's goal with John Haar
scoring the Birds' only goal in
the second half when his hard
shot deflected off a Columbus
player into the net.
The Birds head south Wednesday travelling to Berkeley
for a game with the University
of California and another in
'Frisco against a local All-Star
squad.

Charging rugger Birds
cross off another victim
Ex-Britannia was crossed off UBC Thunderbirds' list in
a free-wheeling rugby game Saturday before a surprisingly
large crowd at Wolfson field. The Ex-Brit squad came up
with a great effort, but the 'Birds proved too powerful for
them.
UBC scored early in the game, when Chuck Plester, on
a fifteen yard run, broke three or four tackles to score.
Mike Cartmel, whose kicking of late has been excellent,
made the convert good. Five minutes later, Cartmel added
a 35 yard penalty kick.
The score was 8 - 8 at half time.
In the second half, Ex-Brits came out playing inspired
ball, but UBC held them without a score, and the tide
turned.
With ten minutes gone, Tetsuhiko Kariya picked up a
loose ball, dodged half the Ex-Britannia team, and scored
in the corner. Cartmel converted another tough one.
Gary Rowles and Tom Fraine added a try each and
Cartmel made good another convert to give Varsity a decisive 21-8 Victory.
The Thunderbirds play a league game Thursday against
the Braves in Varsity Stadium, and the Braves would like
nothing better than to shoot down the high-flying Birds.
